*just signed up for a 9 month deal*

bah! 37.99 for 16/2 MB isn't too bad though, i guess. if someone can start or find a petition i'd sign it.

kudos for thinking this up, but now they need to get this adopted by Microsoft as part of the Games for Windows brand; i can't see it panning out otherwise.

well, there's more than just the GPU that goes into a card. but you're right, the rest probably doesn't account for the extra $330-530

hopefully we'll see it before the end of the year. 'til then, i'm trying not to read any reviews or otherwise hype myself up anymore than i already have by watching those teaser trailers. then when it's finally out, it's a pleasant surprise!

matinee is $6, but since regular is more i said "almost."

the point is, we're not quite to the point where more people buy games than see movies (i.e. are "more popular"). not even where blockbusters like GTA are concerned.

$500 million is impressive, but a game costs almost 10 times more than a movie ticket.

better, yes, but if you're referring to the $500 build, the budget would be out the window.

i think you missed the "wiggle room" addendum; it's certainly viable to switch quad-core for more oomph. remember, these are loose guidelines, i encourage you to make your own decisions on variation.

i agree that it's not a very nice thing to say. =/

i don't get the whole "snarky tone vs. dry press release" thing, either. you can certainly summarize and even evaluate the "boring" raw news in a way that is easy to read but doesn't come off as a muddled, sarcastic, blog-type post. if you want to spice up the news, try a pinch of salt before you pour the whole shaker in there.

if you think about it, it's actually a decent way to get more page views. but, you have to hope people don't get sick of it and stop coming altogether. =/

if they flesh out the entire city of Rapture and let you pick a side like native splicers, explorers, private contractors looking to colonize or gather Adam, etc... could be good if it's done right.

how else would you rank "best game developers?" it's subjective.

i have a vx8300, too, and while it's nice that it plays music, it's no replacement for an actual mp3 player.
